Time: 10 minutes prep, 15 minutes cooking, 25 minutes total

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 tablespoons Vital Farms pasture-raised butter
• ½ medium onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 medium green bell pepper, diced

PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell peppers. Cook until onions become soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.
2. Stir in garlic and cook until garlic becomes fragrant about 1-2 minutes.

4. Once veggies have cooked, add cilantro and spinach and stir until spinach wilts. Create six small pockets in mixture and gently crack eggs into the pockets. Add more salt and pepper, if desired, and cover.
5. Transfer to oven and cook for 5-8 minutes, until egg whites have set.
6. Once egg whites have cooked, remove from stove and garnish with fresh avocado. Serve with toast or pita, if desired.
